Former Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, has been offered a fellowship programme at the Oxford University in the United Kingdom.

This followed the approval granted by the Management Committee of the African Studies Centre, University of Oxford.

Sanusi, who is also a former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), had requested for a Visiting Fellowship (Academic Visitor) at the Centre for the 2020-2021 academic year.

Daily Trust gathered that the St Antony’s College, in the same Oxford University, also accepted him.

The programme will commence from October this year.

Oxford University’s African Studies Centre is one of the world’s leading Centres of African Studies.

The Centre disclosed that Sanusi intends to use the period of his affiliation to write a book around the theme: ‘Central Bank Response to Global Financial Crisis: A Case Study of the Central Bank of Nigeria 2009-2013.’

This will be based on his experience as the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, and as a banker and public intellectual.

The Centre has trained graduate students who are now holding important positions in different spheres of social, economic and political life in Africa and the rest of the world.

Sanusi, an economist and banker, served as the Governor of the CBN from 2009 to 2014.

The Banker magazine recognised him as the 2010 Central Bank Governor of the Year for his reforms and leading a radical anti-corruption campaign in the sector, the first of its kind during the financial crisis.
